If it is truly considered the best, I'd say because it was the first album put out when the Beatles made the transition from being a pop, put out as many records as you can, as fast as you can, band, to becoming actual musical artists that had lyrical meanings, that usually told some sort of story. It brought out a personality of the Beatles that no one realized existed. They were then doing what they wanted instead of what the screaming public demanded.

I've never heard that. I've always heard that the White Album, was considered the best. It's all nonsense, of course, all the LPs are great, they all have some great stuff and they all have some, not so great.

Not that Rolling Stone Magazine is the "end all, be all" of music critiquing, but they ranked Sgt. Pepper as the #1 album of all time. Rubber Soul, Revolver, and The White Album were also in their Top 10.

Sgt. Pepper was the Beatles first album after they decided to stop touring. Thus they became a strictly studio band and the creativity shows in Sgt. Pepper. The songs tell stories, most of which have nothing to do with the album's title character. Personally, my favorite song on the album is She's Leaving Home, but it's a great record from beginning to end.
